Pin your post and post it on every social media you have. Twitter, IG, facebook etc. I will pass it on as well. I am glad to see you and Dylan are safe. My goodness, who could have expected this!
Hi everyone, letting you know. Dylan is with grand parents atm. The caravans are safe and since the flood I've been living in Doris on the street in front of my house. We always felt we would be safe in a flood because I had to build 500mm above the 1 in 100 flood levels but no one expected the flood to rise 3 mtrs above the record levels. That's why I'm lost everything. What you see in the vid is all we have. Insurance companies have made it so on one can afford flood insurance at $1,000 a month. At least we have water and solar so no electricity but at least a shower. Love yous all Please donate. As for flood insurance people are asking about. Unfortunately no one can afford $1,000 a month and I thought I'd be safe building 500mm above the 1 in 100 flood level. But this flood rose 3 mtrs higher than the 1974 record. www.gofundme.com/f/help-this-lismore-family-rebuild-again?+share-flow-1&
Michael, pin this at the top, please. Then everyone can see your GoFundMe here too. Unfortunately, some people just don’t read the blurbs introducing videos. This video is more than heartbreaking 💔
Holy fkn shit Michael am gobsmacked at how high the water got too. Can't believe everything's been destroyed your beautiful bedroom and living room am bloody heart broken for you mate
Do NOT touch the photo’s leave them in their plastic folder as they are. They can be rescued. Turn a page so they dry quicker but please do not be tempted to pull them out of their pockets etc. There is a way to rescue them. There are computer programs that can help you. Try “ Photomyne”. There were floods in Toowoomba in 2011 and I remember a photographer came to the aide of people with their issue’s for restoration of photo’s. Good luck with your recovery. You certainly have had to struggle to survive. Keep yourself and your dogs in a safe place mentally and physically. So sorry this has happened.
Oh, no. That is horrible that you lost practically everything. Hopefully yall will be able to clean the house and be able to move back in. Just remember you and your son are safe and thats what matters most. We lost everything in a fire including the house so I know how hard it is to start over. Hugs.
I heard about the flood. It must have be devestating to lose everything in your house. It was so beautifully decorated. Praying for financial relief for you and dylon. That water must have been pretty rough....
I had to rewatch to let it sink in what has happened to your family. The water level was outrageously high. There is no way one can prepare for a flood like this. Grateful you all are alive but redoing to make livable is a daunting task.
Oh Michael I am so so sorry to see this, I heard there were bad floods there but was hoping you would be okay. I want to help so much but my Dad passed on February 26th so there's the funeral to deal with, flowers etc. Sending you all my love and prayers. xxx 🙏🙏❤
@@mkuebler5 Thanks, the funeral is this wednesday but I can't travel there as it's over 5 hours away and I am too disabled to go 😭 I hope you can salvage the things that mean the most, it's so awful. xx ❤❤
Shit mate……what a nightmare I would love to pop over and help out but I’ve been marooned 11,000 miles away for over 45 years 😉 A legend like you will always pull through 👍
Oh My Goodness. The water got up so high. And you up on the second story. I cry with you. Do you have insurance? You and Dylan are safe. Most important thing. Wish I were there to help. You are always in my prayers.
Nothing worse than getting flooded out. I get flooded out from water coming in from under the house. I have lost so much stuff I tend to leave as much as possible off the floor. I permanently leave sandless sandbags down. They are expensive 5 of them cost 130.00 but it seems to work well. You poor thing. So much damage. Stay safe
Omg. Well, you're still alive, and your boy, and your dogs. Rinse out the house, do the laundry when you can, and let everything else dry out. Damn, I was looking at some of the news shows there, and everything is mud caked. I live in California, and I've never seen anything like this horrible flooding. Now I understand why houses are on stilts there. So you'll need a fridge? Along with furniture and...I really hope your house is sound when it dries out. If your subscribers pitched in something, anything, it would at least get you a new start. This got me in the heart, seeing the destruction. Australians have been through enough already.
Sorry to hear, been watching it on TV...it can dry you and Dylan are both Pk....you have beautiful memories no one can take.....belongings can be replaced......thinking of you.
Saw the flood on the news and had no idea thats were you lived but I was thinking about you and now my prayer are with you as well. What a horrible thing to have to deal with. My part of the world I have earthquakes, nothing like water damage. Everything will work out.
With your file cabinet and photo albums, carefully remove photos from the album and lay out to dry, as a teen our house flooded and most of our photos that got destroyed were because we let them dry in the albums, and any important paperwork in your file, carefully go through and try to dry each separate as well, so sorry you're going through this ❤️
Sorry too see that you lost practically everything. Electric stuff , dry it in the sun for 2 weeks, hope insurance pays soon, important paper stuff hang it in the sun page by page Hope this will not affect your health too much.
Omg that's awful I feel bad for you you have gone through so much but your alive and it's only material things the most important thing is you both are still here a life is more precious all the riches of ❤️😿
Oh Michael im so sorry you're going through this, my place flooded on Saturday but only just above skirting board height in the house but all our memories, tools, crafting, some jewellery and ashes were in shipping container and garage that was inundated with floodwater 😥 let me know if youd like someone to talk to ❤ Take care and stay safe
I'm so so sorry for your misfortune, it's a killer having a flood come through, you feel like someone died. All I can say (having lived through the same) is be kind to yourself. And head down & bum up & power through it. Don't be afraid to ask for help.
It’s so heartbreaking to see all that damage, I hope you have Insurance and they say more bad weather to come to. We expecting heavy rains falls from the cyclone coming across from Western Australia into Victoria but I don’t think it’s nowhere near as bad as what youse had receive. Good luck with the clean up.
I am so sorry this is happening to ya'll. You're right nothing lasts forever but a home and bare necessities are so hard to lose. We don't have much else. I hope you can save a lot of it. I wish you all the best.
I've just seen this video i hope you have got some semblance of normality back nd didn't get flooded in second drenching of lismore, also hope u got that disaster relief money from government to help u, sooo sorry stay strong 💪 💜💜💜from a subscriber at outback bourke 🙏🙏🙏
My gosh how high did the water get?? Wasn’t your house up on stilts?? I thought it was pretty high up in the air? My heart goes out to you !! And I was going to tell you it was good to hear from you here, hadn’t in a long while! But after seeing this……😢😢 still great to see you though! ❤️❤️
This is confusing - your living quarters is like a second level.. aren't you up on stilts ? And that high water mark on the walls looks like your house turned into a swimming pool . Did a dam break ?
Pin your post and post it on every social media you have. Twitter, IG, facebook etc. I will pass it on as well. I am glad to see you and Dylan are safe. My goodness, who could have expected this!
Thank you 💖

The weather patterns are messed up all over the world. Climate change.
We had hurricane force winds that took down 100 year old 🌳 all over town. The damage was insane.
Oh Michael I am so so sorry to see this, I heard there were bad floods there but was hoping you would be okay.
I want to help so much but my Dad passed on February 26th so there's the funeral to deal with, flowers etc.
Sending you all my love and prayers. xxx 🙏🙏❤
Sorry to hear about your dad. X
